      1. What would you like to communicate to the user about this feature?
      2. Would you like the user to see examples of the syntax and/or executable code and its output?

      As described in https://codingnest.com/the-future-of-catch2/ after the next major release the plans to maintain Catch2 are up in the air. The next major release plans to drop support for VS2015/gcc 4.8, which we may not want to drop support for.

      Let's investigate alternatives like google test or decide if Catch2 is still okay with these downsides.
